Bearnais
The bothy is a single room shelter. Historical Note Bearnais bothy is in a great location to explore the hills between Glen Carron and Loch Monar. It was restored in 1974 as a memorial to Eric Beard, a well-known character in the outdoor world. The Bearnais Story by MBA founders Bernard & Betty Heath gives a good account of how major MBA projects were carried out in the mid 1970s. LOGBOOK ENTRIES “Excellent bothy, great for reaching 2 remote Munros. I was alone there over 2 days. Totally silent at night: no sound of any rodents etc. Peaceful and friendly! I much appreciated the efforts of the MO. I removed a bag of rubbish left by previous occupant and disposed of it in Strathcarron, and swept the place out. Visitor’s book makes very interesting reading and a useful log”. This bothy is listed by the Mountain Bothies Association in the North West Highlands and Islands area of Scotland.
